The upcoming Hollywood film Rental Family, which stars Brendan Fraser, has been selected as this year’s American Express Gala presentation at the 69th edition of the BFI London Film Festival. The film is directed and co-written by Hikari, whose credits include 37 Seconds (2020) and the Emmy-winning series Beef (2023). 

“I feel so humbled and honoured,” said Hikari. Set in Tokyo, Rental Family centres on an American performer (Fraser) who takes a job with a Japanese company that provides temporary family members on hire.
